I was touched by the title of the song and the special anxiety, confusion of feelings here.

クールネスベース～凄いラインをナチュラに。。羨ましいスキル。そしてすごくアンニュイな展開。。ようやく秋を感じました。ありがとう～けんすけさん

そして新しい機材でのサウンドも楽しみにしています。

Wild fun mix of styles, I love the jazziness!

Lyrics
He got bottles of dreams to keep hiding himself away from life
he said he’s gotta be the best or there’s no point in trying tonight
it takes too much time to get up and not enough time to fall down
he was always getting somewhere didn’t think he’d ever get tied to this town (no not to this town)

Can you hold on
Tell me Can you hold on

She got two more lives to go now then she’ll finally stick around and she’s been around
the bag she’s trying to drown in sponsored by online love she never found no she never found
she got excuses ready and waiting every one’s got its own special place it’s her special place
with too many hang-ups and over’s you can’t rewrite the lines in your face no not on your face

Can you hold on
Tell me Can you hold on
Hold on for another day
Hold on don’t be afraid
Hold on we’ll find another way
Hold on just hold on
Hold on please hold on

And if you had your chance again 
would you fall down the same paths
cos The world inside is empty 
if you can’t see past the past
and if you had your time again 
would you walk in another’s shoes
cos the choices are so empty 
if you’re too much a fool to lose
yeah your world inside is empty 
if you’re too afraid to choose
you’re too afraid to lose 
can you see past your past

And hold on for another day hold on now
Hold on don’t be afraid hold on now
Hold on we’ll find another way so hold on now
Hold on just hold on
Hold on please hold on

Cast of Characters:

TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — Earle Scruggs custom banjo, production, mix, and mastering

This is the latest in our series of songs Carl has written about us. Being as both Tez, a lifelong, and to a lesser degree, Carl are Manchester United fans, Carl seized on the opportunity to celebrate their shared fandom. Although the lyrics are a little inscrutable to us Americans, we love that football (soccer) fans from across the pond will know exactly what he's talking about. 
  Carl wrote this song on his acoustic guitar, and upon sharing it with us, we weren't sure as to the direction we wanted to take it. JJ threw down first, adding his good-time-sounding upright piano and strikingly beautiful organ to the mix first. He also added the subtle human voice choral synth you hear throughout. Enchanted with Carl's composition, Josh next added his bass and mandolin both in the same recording session, without even closing his DAW. Mark was in right after, adding his friendly fiddle solo as well as fiddle fills throughout. Being as the song is about him, Tez came along shortly after and added the tuneful intro and outro on his guitar. Then, as it was just about to sit for a while, Ken added his very tasteful, perfect drums to the mix, thus completing the rhythm section. 
  Before we put a bow on it, though, Stephen made it back from his week in the Colorado wilderness in time to add his magical banjo to the mix. Speaking of mixes, now it was time for one, and we turned it over to him, our in house pro, to do the honors.
  We all really enjoyed working on this one. It is an example of Eclectic Collective taking one of Carls songs and having our way with it. Always a team effort getting it over the line, but we always manage to do it. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Division Two Champs, '75
Small consolation for '74 cries
Fan wow land psyched
True Red Devil in this life

We fell to Leeds
Last Division 1
We had the Irish
Man, I followed them
McGrath didn't train
A different breed
Golden era
Boozed up greats as seed

Then, we mostly won
But still, these moments to memories shone
Keane's end at Juventus
His team's power won
Beast perseverance
2-3 semi so they march on

Teddy & Ole
Broken Bayern lines
Videos with no YouTube
In sport mad mind

Great from great, Cantona
Flying curve ball martial artist
Old Leeds leech
A la French finest

Man Utd before Glazier fud
Old Trafford dreams
Red Devil blood
A fan forever no matter loss
Good grinding Fergie
Our hairdryer boss

True Red Devil
Hughesy's volleys
Arsenal disheveled
Good Giggsy speed
End to end
Back of the net
Great teen we get
Front of our dreams

True Red Devil
Scars from Aguero
And Barce's better
New cycles please
We've been Malcolmed
Bought like shop
These greedy Glaziers fucking up
Our theatre of dreams

If only for Fergie time
We'd be doing just fine

勇気を出して気持ちを伝えてみよう！・・そんな感じの曲です。
長く使っているオーディオインターフェース(UA-4FX)の調子が悪いので、買い替える事になりました。この曲はUA-4FXを使って作った、最後の曲です。寂しいな。次回からは新しい機材です。
※絵はAIに描いてもらいました

Gather up the courage to express your feelings! That's the kind of song it is.
My audio interface (UA-4FX) that I've been using for a long time is malfunctioning, so I've decided to buy a new one. This is the last song I made using the UA-4FX. I'll be sad. From next time onwards, I'll be using new equipment.

■歌詞
「ちぎった今を」
冷たい冬が来る前に
積もり積もった気持ちを伝えよう

乾いたのどを潤した夏の水
空っ風に吹かれ消えてしまうさ
泳ぎ切った日の事は遠く幻で
その人の顔も忘れてしまう

失うことは怖すぎるね
いっそ秋の風の吹く方にまかせ
上手くいかないと決まった訳じゃない
天国なのか地獄かなんか　風に聞くさ


変わってしまう景色なら
今をちぎって　届けよう気持ちを

人の気持ちはわからないさ
きっと秋の空のように変わる
立ち上がる時さ勇気ふり絞って
ちぎった今を届けたならば強くなれる

ああ　時を　巻き戻せたなら
ああ　今を　生きる　
今を・・

■Lyrics (translation)
"Before Winter Comes"
Before the cold of winter arrives,
Let me tell you the feelings you've kept buried deep.
The summer water that once soothed your thirsty throat
Will be swept away by the dry winter wind.
The day you swam through it all now feels like a distant dream,
Even that person’s face begins to fade.
Losing something is terrifying, isn’t it?
So maybe just follow the direction of the autumn breeze.
It’s not like failure is already decided—
Whether it’s heaven or hell, ask the wind.
If the scenery around you is bound to change,
Then tear off this moment and send your heart with it.
You can’t always understand someone’s feelings,
They shift like the autumn sky.
But when it’s time to rise again, summon your courage—
If you deliver that torn moment, you’ll grow stronger.
Ah, if only I could rewind time...
Ah, I’ll live this moment—
This moment...

I can’t be scared of modern day ai 
Cos daddy said don’t be afraid of things that cannot cry

Cos them robotic minds somewhere deep inside 
Will never feel the difference between jealousy and pride
Or fathom out the fashions of the secrets that we hide
But I’m so alive , I can fantasise 
I can disbelieve what’s before my eyes
But I won’t prophesies demise
Because prophets love to lie
And I’m too busy getting high
That’s where I find the fire
Unless we’re blind to the light 
There ain’t no need to fight
Cos it’s impossible to die
If we’ve never been alive

I can’t be scared of modern day Ai
Cos daddy said don’t be afraid of things that cannot cry 

I'm not convinced there's skill in prompts
that generate soulless and gaunt
emotions that fall short of what is human.
Such foolish sheep ingesting these
false imitations of beliefs,
experiences not achieved, nor numen. 
And it's plumin' smoke into the air,
unnatural, how do they dare
pollute our world without a care for people?
Why can't we all accept, make peace
that perfection is out of reach
and we are ours, flaws, all, unique, yet equals.
 
Oh Ai 
My my
